The failing tests in 0.9 are new, in that the test is not the same as in
0.8. As I commented in the arch-RM bug, I don't think this is a regression
(but I haven't checked at all). James Cowgill mentioned a change in glibc
as the possible cause[1]. One way to test would be to run the test from 0.9
with the binary from 0.8.

That said, I certainly welcome help. I'm completely overloaded right now so
I can't look at this.
